MK8 nozzles, hardened

MK8 Nozzle: Features and Differences

The MK8 nozzle for 3D printers is one of the key components of the extruder. It is used to melt plastic material and apply it to the print surface during the 3D printing process. The MK8 nozzle has features that make it popular among 3D printer users, including a variety of outlet diameters, allowing for precise control over the flow of melted material. This means you can choose a nozzle for printing smaller, highly detailed parts or larger components at high speeds.

Please note! Choosing a nozzle for your needs, always pay attention to the outlet diameter. The standard diameter is 0.4 mm. If your nozzle diameter is smaller, you need to reduce the print speed; if it is larger, you should increase the melting temperature of the plastic

Nearly all MK8 nozzles are designed for 1.75 mm filament, differing mainly in the outlet diameter, which can range from 0.1 to 1 mm.

The installation of the nozzle into the heating block is done by screwing the threaded part of the nozzle into the corresponding hole in the heating block.

Specifications

• Outlet Diameter: Ranges from 0.1 to 1 mm
• Thread Type: M6
• Material: Hardened steel
• Dimensions: 13 x 6 mm

Purchase Hardened MK8 Nozzles

The hardened MK8 nozzle significantly expands the capabilities of your 3D printer, allowing you to print with all engineering plastics, including complex materials like carbon fiber.

The lifespan of a hardened nozzle is considerably longer than that of its brass counterparts. Despite the higher cost, this can save you money, as one hardened nozzle can replace 4 to 8 brass nozzles, or even more.
